Bio

I have been researching my family for the past eight years and now find that I have come up against a few brick walls.
I have recently retired (I'm 65) and the research will take up a good deal of my time now. The purpose is, so the following generations will know about their heritage.
I only had a vague knowledge of where I came from. Learning about my family has given me a sense of belonging and confidence that I never had before. I hope my Grandies and beyond will have that feeling of belonging and the confidence that goes with it,at a very early age.
I come from a very large family, the decendants of whom are spread across Australia and New Zealand.
Our ancesters are from Scotland and England with one from the USA, who is the greatest mystery.
Finding decendants of my Great or Great great or even 3xGreat grandparents siblings is most exciting and most rewarding.
